285e Freq shifter

285e Freq shifter

2010-01-05 by Chris Muir

I've had a 285e for about a week now, and I'm having a lot of fun with  
it. Both sides really sounds great. It's a flavor that I've really  
been wanting. It doesn't get a lot of discussion here, so I thought  
I'd mention it.

A couple of nights ago I discovered that you can route it into itself and it becomes another sound source in your system. Wonderful variety too.

Seems like it has analog VCOs.

It's also a nice alternative to the internal AM modulation of the 259e and 261e. More pronounced effect, I think.

While it _can_ do some subtile shifts, subtile would not be my go-to  
description for this module.

It goes from nothing to full on klang pretty quickly.

Try this patch - 
 
Run noise into the frequency shifter in.  Route the up and down outputs full
left and right.   Turn the reference frequency all the way down (left).
You'll hear a weird swirling effect.    Note the effect disappears
completely in a mono mix - the swirling comes from the signals mixing in
air.   Also note that the swirling frequency will change as you move your
head left and right between the speakers.

While it _can_ do some subtile shifts, subtile would not be my go-to 
description for this module.

It goes from nothing to full on klang pretty quickly.

I love the 285e. Very accurate and clean. Btw , I would never describe it as "subtle" ... i wonder if yours is functioning properly amnesia ....
i think the ring mod section sounds good , but not nearly as good as the 111
which is my favorite ring mod of all time. But what it lacks in sonic quality is more
than made up for by the flexibility :)
